It had been nearly three months since she had stepped foot in this place. Three months since she had decided to go find what was out there for her. And what she found was not what she intended. Three months, thats all it took for her to leave and then discover she didnt belong out there. Not with the many Lycans who veiwed the clan she came from as abominations. And those she met had viewed her as such. She had visited a few Lycan villages while she was away. And each one she was met with Ridicule and cruelty. She was forced from them, some by words, some by brute force. She fouhgt back of course but she was never much of a fighter. And it showed on her now, the scars, the fresh wounds, and it showed in the way she carried herself. She used to doubt herself, but through everythign she had found that lost confidence. It was there, a confidence that helped her know she had a home here in this place, even if no one outside of here wanted her. She sat on a rock, nursing a bleeding and broken arm, while at the same time looking out over the home she had no idea she would miss.

He ran up the hill in his Lycan form and just carried a rabbit in his mouth. Shaking his body free of water, he just sat down and started eating the rabbit and having a good old time in his Lycan form. Soon he sensed Nadia and just continued on eating by himself, trying not to pay her any mind. He hadn't seen her in awhile no. He didn't know what to think about her though, because he didn't know what to say to her.

She sat in deep thought, thinking of the past. Of a past that seemed so far away but really was still so close to the present. She thought about her sister and how she lived life bitterly because of heart break, of the daughter her sister had brought into the world and seemed to have changed her over night, of giving that daughter to her father, and finally of Andreus. There was so much left unsaid, so much she would go back and change. But she knew there was no chance in changing the past. She could only live for the future. She moved her arm trying to set it in place. Each movement causing more pain. She let out a slight yelp and doubled over slightly, she couldnt escape the pain. She began to breath heavily and then finally with anohter yelp and a loud cracking of bones her arm was positioned in a way she hoped would help it heal.

Tilting his head towards her, he licked his lips and just scratched his side for awhile, looking at the leftovers of the rabbit. Some bones and a few tendons from tough muscles. Shaking his head, he just laid down and yawned, keeping one eye on Nadia, noting that she had been injured. She was strong enough though, their kind healed well enough though, usually, so he kept to where he was and closed his eyes, listening to whatever sounds she and nature made as he tried to rest up a bit before he had to go back home to his brother.

She stayed in the position she was in for a long time. Letting the pain slowly subside. Finally it was only a distant throb and she could handle it. She looked up finally letting her senses catch up with her thoughts and time. She looked around for a few moments. She could feel Andreus close by. She stood and took a few steps, only to fall to her knees. She cursed the other lycans and the poison that they had filled into their arrow points. She sighed and held her broken arm agaisnt herself as she tried to work at the arrow point that was stuck in her leg. When she couldnt budge it she looked into the direction that she had sensed Andreus, "I know you are there Andreus."

Looking right at her, he just grunted, breathing hard from his nose and just turning around from her, still in his Lycan form, shaking his head as he did so, his tail tucked beside him. So she knew he was there, didn't mean he had to answer her, besides he was in his Lycan form, not like he could exactly start rambling outloud to her. Sitting up, he just started loping about and looked at her, she had an arrow in her leg. Looking at her, he just barked at her, several times. He was laughing, he'd know she'd realize if she was smart enough.

She looked at him and rolled her eyes, "You could help you know." She watched him for a few moments, shaking her head when he turned his back on her. She sighed and tried to pull it out again, her hand only slipping on her own blood. She sat down and stretched her leg out as he began to lope around. HE started barking and she gave him a menacing look, "It isnt funny. It hurts like hell and it is poisoning me." She was loosing alot of blood and she only had one hand to try and stop the flow of the blood. Finally she looked at him again, "Please Andreus?"

"Yeah, yeah. Stop being so wimpy." He rolled his eyes and just walked on over to her and grabbed the arrow tightly and made sure he had a tight grip on them. "Ready....1...GO!" He tore the arrow from her leg and smiled."Don't have anything else for you other than that if you're poisoned." He shrugged and just tossed the arrow to the ground. "Come on, you're not a baby." he stuck his tongue out at her."I can't be seen with such a weakling."He laughed.

"I am not being wimpy. I have a arrow in my leg and a broken arm. It hurts." She watched him getting closer and let out a sharp breath when he ripped the wrrow out of her leg. Even though she had prepared herself for it, it still hurt like hell. She made a face and then tried swatting out at him, "I know I am not a baby but you try having to walk from Thracia to here with an arrow in your leg and a broken arm." She sighed, "I'm still not used to all this Warrior stuff. And I am glad to be back here." She stuck her own tongue out at him, "What are you afraid it will rub off on you?"

"Weakness rub off on me? Ha!" He shook his head."You're speaking to a Lycan Prince Nadia. Me and my brother were bred for perfection in battle. I was in the Lycan ranks before most boys are. My brother was placed there as well, as will his sons, my nephews. They will be trained, and if I'm not mistaken, I have a feeling his daughter will want to push herself right into the mix as well. They're all strong children, all have a strange connection to one another's instinct's I suppose. The twins are stronger however, because they're basically the same, down to even their scars."

She raised her eyebrow, "Are you trying to prove something to me Andreus? I knew a long time ago you were great." She smiled slightly and then laughed, "It is still so hard to see you as a prince. Especially when I have seen you roll around in the mud and just be downright retarded." She shifted her broken arm slightly and then pullign some of her shirt up she ripped a good portion from the bottom of it to make a makeshift sling. She worked her arm into it and then started on trying to get the flow of blood from her leg to stop. "I must look like a bum on the side of the street right about now."

"You look a lot worse than a bum on the street Nadia. You look like you. Don't try and make yourself BETTER looking." He laughed."I do that because I am who I am. I'm still a Prince. Prince is a title, nothing else. Cartras is a King and he's not exactly king-like. He's always been my brother before business and rank. Were a good family." He nodded."Even if he married out of our kind it doesn't matter. I love my sister-in-law." he seemed to be on the defensive for some reason, but some people questioned Cartras' choices, and he always defended them.

She looked at him slightly shocked, "You never had a problem with how I looked before. You never once told me I was horrible looking." She frowned slightly and nodded, "You are a good family. One of the best I have ever seen. Cartras is a wonderful King and he has great taste in woman. No one should ever looks at what a person is but who they are inside. Life would be so much simpiler if we all followed that credence. But its a fools hope to think it would ever happen." She looked up at him with a sad smile, "Can you help me get this bandaged? Then I'll leave you alone."

"I say that now because YOU got on my bad side." He grinned widely as if it was winning the lottery or something."Too bad for you though really." He yawned and just shrugged."Yeah, fine. They'd never let me live it down if I left you here to fend for yourself." Moving to her, he slung her over his shoulder and bounded away closer to the Lycan territory where there were several old women gathered around and chatting."There. Don't insult them or they'll make YOU into someone's next bandages." He laughed. "I'm serious. They did this to me." He showed her a burn on his shoulder.

"Well I didnt mean to get on your bad side. I was afraid back then so sue me." She rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue, "No actually its to bad for you. You have no idea what you are missing." She watched him get closer and then felt herself being thrown over his shoulder. She let out a loud grummble as her arm was jolted and then pinched his arm, "BE careful! I am a hurt woman here." She watched as they neared the village and then looked down at his shoulder, "Serves you right then. Never insult people. They'll always get you back." She smirked, "Since I have been gone what have you been doing? Breaking anymore hearts?"
